Interesting fact

The obverse (front) side of the coin features a portrait of Alexander the Great, while the reverse (back) side depicts a seated Zeus holding a scepter and an eagle. This design was a common motif on many coins issued during Alexander's reign, as he sought to emphasize his divine lineage and connection to the gods.
